Bord'Eau

After extensive renovation, Bord’eau reopened in 2011 and went on to earn a Michelin star for their elegant dishes.
Chef Richard van Oostenbrugge creates a no-nonsense high-class menu of artfully constructed fine French cuisine. Occupying a coveted location right on the Amstel River with a view of Amsterdam’s centre, the restaurant celebrated being awarded a second Michelin star in 2013.
